I think it's just human nature coming through, even if he doesn't acknowledge it publicly he can't help but use it as an excuse for a loss.

well..its whisenhunt too

One of them is Warner’s current head coach, Ken Whisenhunt, whose first reaction to Spygate was one of anger. He flashed back to his time as a Steelers assistant and the two AFC championship games his team lost at home to the Patriots, after the ’01 and ’04 seasons, and a figurative light bulb turned on inside his head.
The latter game, a 41-27 defeat, occurred during Roethlisberger’s rookie season, when Whisenhunt was Pittsburgh’s offensive coordinator and play-caller. Recalling that chilly evening in January of ’05, Whisenhunt remembered plays he sent in that, as soon as the ball was snapped, New England’s players defended perfectly. The Pats’ uncanny sense of what was coming baffled him at the time, and now he had a possible explanation.

I don’t love them or hate them, but you’d have to be completely ignorant of the history of the NFL to think that videotaping signals is news, or interesting, or cheating, or anything other than NFL gamesmanship, which was always seen as entertaining until it was by Belichick…and his only sin is being better at his job than anyone since Chuck Noll and Vince Lombardi.
It's comments like these, by usersnames like that - that give you hope in the other fan bases around the league.
Between reading about Warner, Whisenhunt and the Cardinals board reaction to one of our members here, the Cardinals have really made it hard for me to embrace them at all.

As I've said before, I wouldn't mind if the Super Bowl goes five overtimes and then finally ends when one of the QBs--I don't really care which--collapses in his own end zone for a safety, making the final score 2-0.

Re: Warner hints at super bowl xxxvi cheating again
Warner and Whisenhunt are grasping at straws, especially when the violation was filming opponent's DEFENSIVE hand signals... how does that help our defense??
Re: Warner hints at super bowl xxxvi cheating again
Warner pretty well sums up what's really on his mind when he says that guys' "careers were changed" in that game. He's clearly talking about himself. That would have been his second ring and people were starting to talk about the Rams as a "Dynasty."
Whatever we might feel about it, the 2000's Pats are never going to get fully out from under the shadow of Spygate. The Shadow will diminish with every passing year, but it will always be there.

Re: Warner hints at super bowl xxxvi cheating again
Reading those PFT comments really pisses me off. Taping publicly viewable defensive hand signals does not help a team figure out your offense.
How quickly people forget that since the Witch Hunt, the Patriots won 18 games in a row, then the following season, won 11 games after losing 5+ of their best players and using a QB who hadn't started since high school.

You're right, Warner thinks his career was altered on that day and it's easy for him to blame the Pats rather than his own moronic coach. I give him credit for battling back to where he is today after almost being out of the league, but taping defensive signals had no impact on his poor performance that day.
As for the Witch Hunt, why can't the Pats get out of it? Multiple respected coaches have admitted to taping. Defensive hand signals are publicly viewable and it's legal to record them, just not on the sidelines. Belichick has already proved the past 2 years that he is the best coach in the game and that sideline video had no impact.
